Irish enthusiasm was at its helrht
!at th Columbia theatre last nlg-ht when
Conor O'Kelly. mmbr or paruaroen
from County Mayolreland. addressed s
natrlotks a band of Celta aa could b
' crowded Into - the larne playhouse,
i Worsts of applause were frequent during

Irish League of America. There was a
display of Irish patriotism that has
never been equaled In this city. At the
aonclualon of the vroa-ranr-cmmlttee
f was formed to raise subscriptions for a
:hpm-rule fund for Ireland. . i
Mr. p'Kelly Is an earnest, forceful
, speaker, and presented bis cause In a
'logical, deliberate way. ire- mane no
iefforta to amuse the audience with IrlsR
wit or Irish Jokes, but Instead told wnat
. Ireland needs -and how Its needs will
' eventually be supplied. He advocates
no radical or anarchistic methods to ae
.compllah the ends. His plan la rather
to obtain sufficient votes: In parliament
ts hold the balanoa of power, than dic
tate terms to the party In control.
He briefly outlined the various home-
rule and land bills from th .first pro-
poaal of Mr. Gladstone and showed now
'many of the things sought for had been
"iaecompITshedr Ha was sure, lis aald,
that bom rula for Ireland would be
(ranted by tha next Brltlah parliament
'If It were announced In thla coun
try that the legislature of all the states
had been abolished, and that all state
and federal business would In th fu
ture be transacted at Washington, com
plaints would at one b road by all
v th great states of th union. It would
' be argued that local Interests were suf
1 ferine; and f legations from th state
. could not lodge their ceiplalnta quick
ly enough. It Is that way with Ireland.
